Hyundai Sonata Steering Safety Report | June 09, 2010
Reported on June 09, 2010
| WE RENTED A NEW 2011 HYUNDAI SONATA IN JUNE THROUGH BUDGET IN MILWAUKEE WISCONSIN. WE DROVE IT APPROXIMATELY 150 MILES, PULLED INTO OUR HOTEL TO REGISTER, AND WHEN WE WENT TO MOVE INTO THE PARKING LOT SOMETHING POPPED AND THE STEERING COLUMN COMPLETELY DISENGAGED FROM THE CONTROL ARM (I THINK), THE STEERING WHEEL SIMPLY SPUN UNDER OUR HANDS. BUDGET REPLACED THE CAR FOR US BUT THE HYUNDAI CLAIM THAT ALL CARS MADE IT BACK TO THE DEALER BEFORE PROBLEMS GOT SERIOUS IS SIMPLY NOT TRUE. *TR | |
